Developer interest in Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done?

Post by sedjtroll »

Hello developers!

You all do such an amazing job of implementing some of my favorite games on BoardGameArena. I have been very happy with Alena's implementation of my game, Eminent Domain, and it is awesome to see people all over the world enjoying it so much.

I would love to see my most recent game,Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done, implemented on BGA as well. It is a 2-4 player game, with an expansion on the way, and I even have complete art for a future expansion that adds a 5th or even a 6th player (with 1 additional rule for 5-6p).

I do not know how challenging it is to code these games, but I suspect this one would be less work than some. I am available to answer any questions during development, and I can send a copy of the game (Deluxified version) to someone who would do this implementation.

It would be especially funny to see options to use the wooden buildings (retail version) or the plastic ones (Deluxified) , but of course, that's not really important :)

Please let me know if you are interested in implementing Crusaders! It would make my day :)

Thanks,
Seth Jaffee

Sounds like a fun project to work on and an interesting game. I've never developed a game on here, but I work as a developer for a large company working on software that is being used by millions of users.

I saw there was a license agreed already, so that should be good. Like I said, I'm new here as a developer, but do you provide the artwork?

I am the designer, and I work with the publisher, so I can grant permission and provide original art files.

I suggested this game on BGG a week ago!
Wow!

Cool. Like I said, I'm reading up on the game. Looks like a fun game to play. I've mailed the admins to request the art files, so you'll probably get an e-mail if they haven't got them already.

I did get that email! I responded with links to some files. I hope it's what they need. Most of it is the print PDFs, but if need be I might be able to get raw files... I'm not sure what's needed.

I might be able to work magic from the pdfs, I already got some stuff from the manual. Let's see when I get them in!

Files sent to site, and I believe they've made them available to you :)

I look forward to anything you can do with them. It would be awesome to play Crusaders online, and especially interesting to debut the expansions online before the print versions arrive :)

Busy with it as we speak! Extracted the meeples, tokens and discs already. Now laying out the board on the screen to see how big the different pieces need to be. I'll try to add some screenshots in this topic when I get something substantial.

Awesome!

I'll note that one side of the board is for 2p and the other side is for 3-4p.

Feel free to email me directly if you have any questions about any of the rules or dynamics: seth AT playTMG.com
